Hi Mojca,

I usually run a luatex binary I have compiled myself, but when I simply tried to run the script to update the minimals, I got the same error as Luigi, on Debian lenny. Etch is really dated now, any chance to update? I assume the libstdc++ version on most Linux distros will be more recent: Debian is never on the cutting edge, and using an ancient version of Debian is unlikely to make things better...
It can happen on older systems (as a server of mine) :
but for example under Ubunto 8.04 -- my laptop --   I have installed libstdc++5 easily and  there is no error.

Maybe you can try to  install libstdc++5 on you linux box too, should be not a problem
(well, debian it's a bit hard-and-pure.... this is why now I like ubunto ) .

Anyway, as far I understand ,next release should be ok.
